The Warehouse Associate role at VOAWW offers a pivotal opportunity to contribute to these vital services by supporting day-to-day warehouse operations essential for the smooth functioning of their community programs. This full-time position involves multiple responsibilities within a dynamic warehouse environment, including overseeing local pickups and deliveries. The Associate will play a key role in maintaining operational accuracy by meticulously checking incoming and outgoing orders, ensuring that products are stored safely and efficiently.

The position also includes physically demanding tasks such as loading and unloading trucks, preparing pallets for shipment, and operating essential warehouse equipment including forklifts, manual and power pallet jacks, and hand trucks. An important aspect of this role is driving agency vehicles, including refrigerated box trucks equipped with lift gates, to facilitate the transportation of food donations and other supplies throughout the service area. This position not only demands physical stamina, such as the ability to lift at least 50 pounds repetitively but also requires a strong commitment to following safety protocols and operational procedures.
